PlayerPro Source Opened

Erik K. Veland writes "According to PlayerPROLounge, the source code for PlayerPRO, the $69 professional tracker-based audio application for Mac OS & Mac OS X, has been released due to the developer's inability to continue the project full time. The software, currently at version 5.9.5 is fully matured, but needs optimizations for Mac OS X. If enough interest is garnered, a SourceForge.net project will be started. Any takers?" No word that I can see on what license is used.

Rosset Antoine said "Here's the code, do with it what you want." No license, I guess. -- amon-re @ playerprolounge

Antoine Rosset: "There will be no license.

This is simply public domain, and you can also use it in any commercial products."

Actually it's public domain according to the Antoine Rosset:

Antoine just released his code openly. You are free to do what you want with it I guess. He's also willing to help out when he has time it seems. At least according to this letter:

Dear Amon-Re,

You are right! I should not let PlayerPRO die!

But I'm actually so busy :

1) I'm now a new father
2) I'm finishing my speciality in radiology
3) I'm going to leave Switzerland for Los Angeles in 5 months

That's a lot for me!

The solution is:

I'm going to freely release the complete source code of PlayerPRO for anyone
and I'll help anyone interested in continuing this work or for bugs
correction.

I hope this answer is enough for you!

Thanks again for your interest in PlayerPRO!

Sincerely,

Antoine
